A. Setup DNS Pointing to Wix

Choose Manage Services, then Manage DNS. Note: f you don’t see Manage DNS then you are logged in at Domain level rather than Admin level.

Select konsoleH Beta

Change the relevant A- and Cname-records using the Wix details from step 1. as follows:

Hostname @:

Under A records, find @ and click Edit in that row

Change the Directs to destination IP (e.g. 23.236.62.147)

Click update

Hostname www :

Delete the A record type www by clicking the X in that row

Use the Add record coloumn as follows

Type: CNAME

Host: www

Is an alias of: provide the URL (e.g. www223.wixdns.net.) Note the fullstop after URL

Click Add record

Hostname M:

Add another record as above, but with Host M

Leave all other records as they are.

Allow 2 – 4 hours for the update to take effect.

B. Change Name Servers to Wix

This option gives Wix control over your DNS for website and email. Name servers cannot be updated via konsoleH, so please mail admin@hetzner.co.za for assistance, confirming that you choose to update your domain to Wix’ name servers rather than DNS pointing.

We don’t recommend this option, as changes to your name servers mean you will lose the ability to make use of our services for that domain, such as webmail.

We will remain responsible for the domain name administration and will continue to bill you for domain name charges e.g. yearly domain renewal fees & your hosting package.

If you have email services linked to your domain name with Hetzner, we will provide you with the details you need to point the mail records back to us via your Wix control panel. Once you’ve confirmed this update, we will update the domain name servers to Wix for you. Note -- if the name servers are updated before the mail records are correctly pointed to Hetzner, mail services will be disrupted.
